This video shows the trust people have in strangers as I wrote in my artist proposal. I got shot down by several people but with a little convincing these people trusted me enough the throw their phones.

This sequence of my photocopied hands are counting down from 5 to 1. However, the 1 is a thumbs up. It shows that from 5 to 2 there isn't any thing special until you get to number 1.

Artist Proposal

Mike Carson
Artist Proposal

1. The experiment I will be conducting will be to test peoples blind trust with something they care about very much. Their phone. The video will be a minute or two depending on how many participants I can get.

2. I plan to walk up to several different people on campus and ask for their phone, in which case I will try to convince them to trust me enough to throw it to me. This will test peoples trust in a stranger.

3. I will have someone take a video in the distance while I try to get the person to throw me his/her phone.

4.The main theme of my work is the idea of inherent trust in other humans. I believe that people were made to naturally trust other people and if I have done nothing to break these peoples trust then they will willing trust me to catch their phone.

5. I will conduct my attempts throughout the day at random spots on campus and they will be recorded by someone else on my iPhone.

6. I picked a very popular item (a phone) to portray the idea of trust so many people can relate to the feeling of throwing their phone.
